The first part of the paper is 20 short questions (60 marks) covering all areas of the course. In section 2 of the paper you must do three long questions. Each long question contains A,B and C parts. The exam lasts for 2 hours so you should spend about 40 mins on the short questions and 24 minutes on each of the long questions.

The short questions examine all aspects of the course so it's best not to take short cuts by leaving out sections of the course. Make sure all your diagrams and sketch maps are clearly labelled. Make sure you know how to answer the question on a landform (rivers/sea/glaciers) as one of these comes up every year. Study each topic and then try to answer the questions on Studyclix checking the marking schemes as you go.
